Kamen Rider: Battride War Genesis is in development for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3, and PS Vita, the latest issue of Weekly Famitsu reveals. It is slated for release via publisher Bandai Namco in Japan in 2016.
The Battride War II followup includes a number of Heisei era playable Riders (as well as characters that appeared as enemies and support-only in the past) such as: Drive, Mach, G3X, Knight, Kaixa, Garren, Ibuki, Gatack, Zeronos, Ixa, Kuuga (Decade), Diend, Eternal, and Ghost.
The Showa era will also appear in full form, with playable Riders confirmed so far as Kamen Rider 1, Kamen Rider 2, V3, X, Amazon, Stronger, Sky Rider, Super 1, Black, and Black RX.
Kamen Rider: Battride War Genesis was first leaked as part of Bandai Namco’s Tokyo Game Show lineup late last month, so expect to hear more there.
